The lighted truck parade is less than three weeks away now! We want this parade to be the biggest one yet so we are encouraging anyone who is thinking about entering a vehicle to come on out and join the parade! You don't have to be a big truck, any and all vehicle types are welcome. And it's an excellent opportunity for some free advertising! We hope to keep this event growing every year so enter a vehicle and help spread some Christmas cheer!

To get your creative juices flowing here are some pictures of Engine 11 getting all decked out for last year's parade!

Annual Summer BBQ

This year's golf tournament had a bit of a wet theme to it, although we were all looking forward to nice sunny weather while hitting the golf greens. Instead we were treated to rain, rain, and more rain. However, the undesirable weather wasn't going to keep us away from our tee time! Some of us even came a lot more prepared than others; right Mike? Here are a few winners to announce for the golf tournament.

  • Team Best Score: Lynn, Ken, and Dave
  • Men's Longest Drive: Richard
  • Women's Longest Drive: Sharon
  • Men's Closest to Snag: Luke
  • Women's Closest to Snag: Julie
  • Men's Closest to Pin: Richard
  • Women's Closest to Pin: Lynn
  • Best Dressed: Mike
  • Team Worst Score: Sharon, Julie, and Coleen (sorry guys but someone has to claim this title)


I hope everyone enjoyed themselves and had a great game!

Finally, thanks to everyone who helped out with the BBQ this year. From setting up tables/chairs to cooking. Any small or big part you played made the BBQ a success. An especially big thanks to Jamie and Julie for all the prep and organization. A big shoutout to Brian for picking up and dropping off the big BBQ. We hope everyone enjoyed the food, the prizes, the people, and in the end just had a good time all around. Can't wait for next year!

P.S. Apologies for the lack of photos for this event. The rain didn't quite allow me to have it out all day snapping photos.
